Pony Up

Pony Up is a cocktail bar founded by bartender Dre Yang, the former head bartender of The Odd Couple, located in Shanghai’s Huangpu district. It’s a homey space with high tables up front, a handful of booth seats, a cozy bar, and lounge seating at back. Interiors are minimalist and stylish with wood and dark leather, and a pop of color with its namesake mural. Cocktails are solid, technical in the making but simple in presentation. Twists on classic cocktails and some fun renditions. They also do food — American-inspired bar snacks on steroids — like corndogs, patty melts, and nachos doused in cheesy beef sauce. The vibe is great, usually a local crowd and acquaintances of Dre.

Pony Up made #97 on the Asia’s 50 Best Bars 2025 extended list.
